SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT CONSCIOUSNESS Giwil Gidwani (A-24) Rutuja Shinde (B-46) Saquib Ansari (B-03) Vrushabh Nikam (B-50) Safety is defined as the state of being free from harm or danger. Safety management is commonly understood as applying a set of principles, framework, processes and measures to prevent accidents, injuries and other adverse consequences that may be caused by using a service or a product. A safety management system (SMS) is defined as an organization-wide process designed to manage safety risk in the workplace. A safety management system can be created to fit any business type and/or industry sector. As the name suggests, industrial safety refers to the safety management practices that apply to the industrial sector. Those processes aim to protect industrial workers, machinery, facilities, structures, and the environment. Industrial safety is overseen by federal, state and local laws and regulations. The Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA) is the primary regulatory body in the United States dedicated to workplace safety, including the industrial sector. •General safety •Site-specific safety issues •Process and production safety •Material safety •Fire safety •Electrical safety •Building and structural safety •Environmental safety Although every workplace and job task carries some safety hazards, industrial hazards are often higher risk and have the potential to cause severe injury, extensive property damage, or devastating environmental harm. Given the highly specialized nature of the work, many of the jobs are carried out by trained and skilled employees. Workers who sustain lost time injuries can be difficult to replace, even temporarily. Good safety practices, then, not only keep workers safe but also help maintain employee, vendor, and client satisfaction. •Preventing work-related fatalities, disabling injuries, illness, and damage to machinery or materials •Ensuring continued production by preventing disruptive incidents •Reducing workers compensation costs, maintaining lower insurance rates, and minimizing indirect costs associated with accidents •Strengthening safety culture and increasing employee morale •Meeting vendor and client expectations •Plant layout •Fire prevention systems •Health and hygiene •Safety training •Alarms and warning systems •Adequate lighting in work areas and corridors •Flooring and working areas that are easy to clean and organize •Insulation •Signboards and written safety instructions • To advise the concerned departments in planning and organizing measures necessary for the effective control of personal injuries. • To advise on safety aspects in all job studies, and to carry out detailed job safety studies of selected jobs. • To check and evaluate the effectiveness of the action taken or proposed to be taken to prevent personal injuries. • To advise the purchasing of store departments in ensuring high quality and availability of personal protective equipment. • To advise on matters relating t carry out plant safety inspections. A job safety analysis (JSA) is a procedure which helps integrate accepted safety and health principles and practices into a particular task or job operation. In a JSA, each basic step of the job is to identify potential hazards and to recommend the safest way to do the job. Other terms used to describe this procedure are job hazard analysis (JHA) and job hazard breakdown. Emergencies can create a variety of hazards for workers in the impacted area. Preparing before an emergency incident plays a vital role in ensuring that employers and workers have the necessary equipment, know where to go, and know how to keep themselves safe when an emergency occurs. These Emergency Preparedness and Response pages provide information on how to prepare and train for emergencies and the hazards to be aware of when an emergency occurs. The pages provide information for employers and workers across industries, and for workers who will be responding to the emergency. Accident prevention refers to the plans, preparations, and actions taken to avoid accidents or stop them from taking place. Accident prevention is a large part of safety and is everyone’s responsibility. Management leadership, faculty, staff and student participation is essential to ensuring that all hazards are identified, addressed and accidents are prevented before they occur. Preventing accidents can be completed through: • Hazard identification and assessment • Hazard prevention and control • Education and training • Program evaluation and improvement What is Environmental Awareness? Environmental awareness means exactly what you may think: an awareness around the natural environment and the choices that either promote its well-being or cause it more harm. It is also the awareness that the earth is in need of protection for its survival. Healthy does not only constitute as needing medical attention, it could also be the outlook of the workplace and even the surroundings. There are four aspects to look into when creating a healthy workplace environment: • Workplace culture • Physical environment and occupational health & safety • Health and lifestyle practice • Supportive workplace environment • https://www.ien.eu/uploads/tx_etim/Page_14_15_Siemens_44496.pdf • https://www.safeopedia.com/ • https://www.cdse.edu/Training/eLearning/IS011/ • https://www.drinkheartwater.com/environmental-awareness/ Thank You!
